Puerto del Sol is a non-profit literary magazine run by faculty and graduate students from the MFA program in creative writing at New Mexico State University. It is based in Las Cruces, New Mexico and has been in circulation since 1960.

Puerto del Sol includes works of fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, visual art and book reviews. As of Fall 2021, it has returned to publishing twice a year. Work from Puerto del Sol is considered for the Pushcart Prize, O. Henry Awards, Best American Short Stories, and other awards.

In addition to publishing established authors, Puerto del Sol also accepts work from up-and-coming writers. Past notable authors include David Foster Wallace, George Saunders, Pam Houston, Jenny Boully, and Rodrigo Toscano.
